It's not as easy as I thought it would be. Some of the bumpers/tire carriers I am liking (after looking at close to 15 online) include:

Rock Hard (it locks open, has a lot of accessory options)
Body Armor (I like situating the can holder between the tire and gate)
Shrockworks (if the tire carrier were ready, this would probably be my choice)
Warn (I can use my factory hitch receiver, but it's expensive)

Anyway, I've also found that it's not that easy to find a ton of information about the bumpers - the websites will give a few pieces of info, but not everything. So, as usual, I am turning to this forum to look for advice and, hopefully, some pictures of those bumpers I listed above.

 

Purejeep just started shipping the rear tire carrier bumper, its a damn good price and built well.. Give Dave a call at Northridge.

Thanks. I've heard good things about the PJ bumper. One thing I was concerned about with it is that it wraps around - does this cause departure angle issues?

 

You would have to ask Eddie, AKA wayoflife, its just now shipping, He's the only one that I know that has wheeled with one.
